I started from scratch and ran "gbp import-dsc" on dscs available in the archive (those
exposed in PTS, did not get through snapshot).

I pushed ncmpc/libmpdclient under my namespace on salsa for you to review:

   https://salsa.debian.org/kaliko-guest/ncmpc-gbp
   https://salsa.debian.org/kaliko-guest/libmpdclient-gbp

I did not add the upstream git history, only the regular gbp upstream.

I ran "scan-copyrights" to rewrite d/copyright files.
I did not edited Uploaders/Maintainer and Vcs-* fields yet, I leave it to you, I'm not
enough familiar with ITS process (ie. should we close ITS report in the changelog…).

We should probably bump libmpdclient version in ncmpc.

I also rewrite a commit message (11689c10) in ncmpc to allow gbp-dch to write the
changelog nicely (not perfect though).

Had to do it before the christmas holidays ;)

Cheers
